5. Opstelling

5.1 Fisiese installasie

1. Kies 'n ligging: Select a suitable location for surveillance, considering the camera's field of view en nagsigbereik.
2. Montering: Use the provided mounting template to mark drill holes. Drill holes, insert wall plugs, and secure the mounting base with screws.
3. Kabelroetering: Route the Ethernet cable through the designated opening in the mounting base. Use the waterproof connector for outdoor installations to protect the RJ45 connection.
4. Heg kamera aan: Secure the camera body to the mounting base. Adjust the camera angle for optimal coverage.

5.2 Network Connection and Initial Configuration

1. Koppel aan netwerk: Connect the camera to your network using an Ethernet cable. If using PoE, connect to a PoE-enabled switch or NVR. If not using PoE, connect a 12V DC power adapter.
2. Ontdek Toestel: The camera typically ships with a default static IP address. To discover the camera on your network and change its IP address, use the Hikvision SADP (Search Active Device Protocol) tool. This tool can be downloaded from the Hikvision official webwebwerf.
3. Aktiveer kamera: Upon first access, you will be prompted to create a strong password for the camera. This activates the device.
4. Toegang Web Interface: Maak oop a web browser (Internet Explorer is often recommended for full functionality with older Hikvision/HiLook firmware due to ActiveX plugins). Enter the camera's IP address in the address bar. Log in with your newly created password.
5. Netwerkinstellings: Configure network settings (e.g., change to DHCP or assign a static IP address within your network range) through the web koppelvlak.

6. Bedryfsinstruksies

6.1 Video Codec Efficiency (H.265+)

The IPC-T240H supports H.265+ video compression, which significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements compared to older H.264 or H.265 standards. This allows for longer recording times and more efficient network usage without compromising video quality.

Figuur 6.1: This chart illustrates the storage efficiency of H.265+ compared to H.264 and H.265 codecs. H.265+ can reduce 24-hour recording file sizes by up to 83% for daytime footage and 67% for nighttime footage, optimizing storage and bandwidth.

6.2 Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

The 120dB WDR feature allows the camera to capture clear images in scenes with both very bright and very dark areas. It balances the exposure to prevent overexposure in bright spots and underexposure in shadows, ensuring details are visible across the entire image.

Figuur 6.2: Comparison of image quality with WDR off (top) and WDR on (bottom). The top image shows significant glare and underexposed areas, while the bottom image, with WDR enabled, provides balanced exposure and clearer details in both bright and dark regions.

6.3 Nagvisie

The camera is equipped with infrared (IR) LEDs, providing clear black and white video surveillance in low-light or completely dark conditions up to a range of 30 meters.

6.4 Remote Access (HiLookVision)

Jy kan bestuur en view your camera remotely using the HiLookVision PC Client software or the HiLookVision mobile application. These tools allow for live viewing, playback, and configuration from your computer or smartphone.

Figuur 6.3: This diagram illustrates the HiLookVision ecosystem for easy device management. HiLook products can connect to the HiLookVision Cloud Server, which then allows access via the HiLookVision PC Client or the HiLookVision App on a smartphone.

  • Pas beeldinstellings (helderheid, kontras, WDR) aan via die web koppelvlak.
  • Ensure sufficient lighting for night vision within the 30m range.
• Kan nie toegang kry nie Web Interface:
  • Confirm the camera's IP address using the SADP tool.
  • Maak seker dat jou rekenaar op dieselfde netwerksegment as die kamera is.
  • Probeer 'n ander web browser, especially Internet Explorer for initial setup with older firmware.
  • Temporarily disable firewall or antivirus software on your computer.
